I've emptied 2 canisters of film for this post. Again! it's from the cheapy Fujifilm 400 Superia X-TRA that you can conveniently purchase at any general or drug stores. I've decided to journey to the part of Oahu in which i've never ventured into yet. All because i just wanted some Mexican Spiced Corn on a stick that you could only get on the Northwest of the Island aka The Northshore.
 |
| This road reminded me of some of the many back roads in Maui. Very Country and surrounded with Meadows and patches of greenery. |
 |
| Made a pit stop at Haleiwa and ran into these kids Jumping off a bridge. This kid specifically mentioned that he'd only let me take the picture if i wait for the SUPPER's(Stand Up Paddle Boarder's) to pass underneath so that he could surprise them with a nice splash. This looks so damn fun especially during the summer! |
 |
| This is my favorite spot in Haleiwa. It's some sort of street sign that has various Destinations in which it tells how far away other states and places are from the Northshore. |
 |
| Some fishing spot for the Locals & Bums. |
 |
| On my way back to my Car. I caught this on a wall,It's a mural of Robert Nesta Marley. I had to play Guava Jelly, Mellow Mood, and Hammer for the rest of the drive. |
 |
After leaving Haleiwa, I noticed a signed that advertised a tourist attraction called "Waimea Falls". I decided to check it out, I just didn't expect the damn entrance fee to be $10 and that's with Kamaaina alone. It was possibly the most un-eventlful hike to a un-interesting Waterfall that was monitored by Lifeguards.
 |
This part of the hike reminded me of a place in the new Planet of The Apes.
 |
Are you there Caesar?
 |
Windmills in Kahuku. I tried finding that corn spot around this area and i couldn't get any luck. Not even Yelp could help me...:(
 |
An interesting Victorian esquè home...After i took a pic of that house. It was time to put on another roll, apparently i forgot to bring an extra film. luckily there's a store nearby that carries it in stock.
 |
This spot was also mentioned by the clerk because it was only 3 minutes away. I couldn't pass up and had to check it out.
 |
I'm pretty sure this is the same area where a scene from Forgetting Sarah Marshall was filmed.
 |
Same cliff where Mila Kunis & Jason Segel jumped off at. This shit fucking scary! i don't even know how you'll get back up with the tides and shit
 |
You can't get anymore Nat Geo than this!
 |
I decided to not take the same way back but instead to just go all the way pass the corner to see what else is out there. I randomly found this memorial of Bernardo Bernard. This dude had the best Switch BS 180 Heelflips, definitely one of Hawaii's best that's past too soon. R.I.P. Nardo!
 |
Shitty Kids X NARDO
 |
Kaawa and the rest of the other towns in this side reminded me of Hana from back home.
 |
This place called "Valley of the Temples" popped up in Google Maps. Saw a shrine in one of the pics so i decided to make it my last stop before heading home.
 |
Byodo-In Temple...it felt like i was in Japan!
Got some excess shots below to finish off the rest of the Roll...
 |
I really need to get another roll of Portra again...it's so hard to get sharp details with this film, let alone dealing with the crunchy grain that it provides
 |
Made a trip to Waikiki the other day to get a tapered belt from H&M. Instead of dealing with the parking, I placed my Car in Ala Moana and skated there instead.
 |
Whenever i take the plane back and forth from Oahu to Maui and Vice Versa, This Lagoon always catches my eye from plane's view. I finally made it out there and was fairly disappointed! pretty crowded and definitely looks better from Plane view and pictures...haha!
^^^P.S. If you're reading this blog and saw that picture. You still need to go with me there(You know who you are). |
